Complete and unabridged, with 55 full-page plates by Arnold Böcklin, Odilon Redon and John Duncan. A woman who remembers a life five thousand years ago meets, on a yacht in the Hebrides, the man she loved then — and the book explains, at length and in earnest, the electric theology behind it. Corelli outsold Wells, Kipling and Conan Doyle combined and was Queen Victoria's favorite; this 1911 novel is the sequel to her first, and she insisted in the preface that every word of the doctrine was true. Fifty-five plates, from Odilon Redon to Andreas Achenbach, follow the novel's dream-logic of roses, Tristan, and northern seas.
